In one of Judiths live interviews, she calls herself humble becuase she had to sew all her own clothes, Judith was ahead of herself and the times, Judith is one classy and fashional dresser, women today should emulate what a proper woman is...... Judith Durham!
They were singers, not our current "entertainers". When you try to be everything for everyone you are nothing for nobody. These folks focused on their talent, singing and as such didn't need all the "enhancements" that new entertainers need.
@dazzini82 Any place is what you make it. Canberra happens to be a lovely town and you just have to get out there and appreciate it. In you mind Canberra is a "shithole" because (perhaps) you are!! Like they say "Life is what YOU make of it. Cheers.......
The times did change thanks to the worlds folk singers.The worlds folk singers need to dust off their guitars ,for there is much wrong in the world again.You changed things for the better once and you can do it again.Take care ADonovan43
@ADonovan43 WOW thats my thoughts also ,where are they when you need them ,,,,sat on their arses like me+you ,,,,,,we need a wakeup call ,,,,even though it maybe to late ,
@grimTales1 Yes; in reality, the Seekers really didn't take to much of the philosophical and religious change either ... so one would have to think that it wasn't sung out of Conviction for any better future place led by American liberals.
Perhaps all invloved musically, realized that the song, as music, would be perfect for their blend and at least fitted their 'semi-folk- style in nature.
Just because people sang this song didn't mean they were politically active,just that it was a very popular song at the time and to do a rendition was probably for popular financial reasons instead.
Is Judith in white gloves, singing a Dylan protest song, supposed to be deliberately incongruous? Or is this just how 1966 Australians dressed when they went to their capital?
I remember Canberra from when I was a little girl. Then as a 30+ year old, I moved there for nearly 20 years.

Wow! Had never heard this song by The Seekers. This is some really really great stuff. Judith Durham, and the boys, are just wonderful.

Great singing, it's unusual in that this was one of the original protest songs and its interesting to see the clean cut Seekers singing it.

She has the most perfect female folk music voixe of all time. And what harmony! And what a powerful and perfect song Dylan wrote!

Their talent transcends the fashion incongruities of a production over which they had no creative control. Love Dylan. But the Seekers can sing...

I preferred Bob Dylan's version especially the one in the beginning of Watchmen. This is excellent singing though.
